Deathrash Armageddon

Deathrash Armageddon is an independent Japanese record label founded in 2002 in Hakodate, in Japan's northern Hokkaido prefecture. It is run by Yukiteru Asai and has specialized since its inception in releasing albums from the subgenres of extreme metal — black metal, death metal, thrash metal and related underground styles. The label's catalogue is built around underground and cult acts rather than mainstream metal, and it operates as a small, owner-run imprint typical of the international extreme metal tape and vinyl scene. Its releases span full-length albums, split albums, demos and 7-inch EPs, often issued in limited physical editions aimed at collectors and dedicated fans. Representative titles include Bestial Holocaust's Final Extermination (2006), Satanic Warmaster's Black Metal Massacre (2007), Surrender of Divinity's Oriental Hell Rhythmics (2007), Goat Semen's Raids The North – Gigoku No Syuhrai (2007), Necrovomit's 2007 Demo I (2008), Abigail/Hate Kommand's Street War Metal Kommand 7-inch EP (2008), Mirthless's ...A Las Orillas Del Mar... (2009), In League With Satan / Necrovomit's split NecroAlkoholik Abominations With Satan (2010), Whipstriker's Crude Rock 'N' Roll (2010), Fetid Zombie's Carrion Christ (2012), Nacht's Memories (2014), Vomit of Doom's Magnus Cruelty 7-inch EP (2017) and Holocausto's Diário De Guerra (2020). The label's roster and output reflect a deliberately international underground network, with artists drawn from Japan, South America, Europe and beyond. Deathrash Armageddon maintains a web presence at deathrasharmageddon.com and is documented in music databases such as Discogs and Wikidata. It remains a private, independent operation rather than a major-label subsidiary, and its identity is closely tied to the personal curation of its founder.

Deathrash Armageddon was founded in 2002 in Hakodate, in the Japanese prefecture of Hokkaido, and has since specialized in releasing albums from the subgenres of extreme metal. The label is run by Yukiteru Asai, who serves as its head and curator. From its base in northern Japan, the imprint built a catalogue oriented toward the international underground rather than the mainstream metal industry, issuing full-length albums, split releases, demos and 7-inch EPs. Through the 2000s and 2010s the label released titles by a range of cult extreme metal acts. Among its documented releases are Bestial Holocaust's Final Extermination (2006), Satanic Warmaster's Black Metal Massacre (2007), Surrender of Divinity's Oriental Hell Rhythmics (2007), Goat Semen's Raids The North – Gigoku No Syuhrai (2007), Necrovomit's 2007 Demo I (2008), the Abigail/Hate Kommand 7-inch EP Street War Metal Kommand (2008), Mirthless's ...A Las Orillas Del Mar... (2009), the In League With Satan / Necrovomit split NecroAlkoholik Abominations With Satan (2010), Whipstriker's Crude Rock 'N' Roll (2010), Fetid Zombie's Carrion Christ (2012), Nacht's Memories (2014), Vomit of Doom's 7-inch EP Magnus Cruelty (2017) and Holocausto's Diário De Guerra (2020). The spread of these releases — across black, death and thrash metal and across Japanese, South American and European artists — illustrates the label's role as a small but internationally connected node in the extreme metal underground. Deathrash Armageddon maintains its own website and is listed in music databases including Discogs and Wikidata. It remains an independent, privately run operation.
